Chapter 33: Bad luck

"Xing Jinfeng? Do you know my father? A flash of lightning lit up in Chu Ci's mind, it turned out that he was really the young rich man Xing Jinfeng who he thought was unlikely before! Unable to help but take a step forward with some excitement, the man nodded. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Before he could ask carefully, Xing Jinfeng was the first to come up with a sentence.

"Do you believe in talent?" Xing Jinfeng took a few steps forward, leaning against the mottled and peeling exterior wall a little weakly. Looking up at the white clouds fluttering by, the words he said were confusing. Chu Ci looked at his side face, and just found that Xing Jinfeng would be less than thirty years old next year, but a trace of time quietly crept up in the corners of his eyes.

"I've had a strange instinct about money since I was a child, and it's not an exaggeration to call it talent. Flowery banknotes are like a torrent, and every speculator is a fisherman sitting on the shore. Some people use their theoretical knowledge to measure the chances of a school of fish passing by, some people roll up their sleeves and go to the sea to fight, and I can hear the signals of the big fish coming through the reactions of other fish in the murky water. Every time I make a move, I get a lot out of it. I've enjoyed the feeling of the market changing, and I've always been able to do it. ”

Chu Ci had to say that if ordinary people said this, Chu Ci would think that he was bragging, but Xing Jinfeng was different. As a genius who opened a company on his own when he was a teenager of fourteen or fifteen, his annual income exceeded that of the industry's veterans and top bosses. Xing Jinfeng's words had a faint nostalgia and a hint of excitement. Everything about him seems to be steadily moving in the direction of being a winner in life, but, of course, Chu Ci knows that there is a but.

"But that all changed seven years ago, when we were planning to build a resort with a special area. Let's be honest, whether it is God's favor or the luck of the season, I have never encountered a major setback, in my career. At that time, too, everything was ready, almost everything was ready for the publicity cost and the renovation of the building, etc., and it was almost time to open the door. Then an approval document stated that the area was planned as a protected area and that development was prohibited...... At the time of development. Speaking of this, Xing Jinfeng's face showed a wry smile, and his words stopped.

Chu Ci just listened quietly and didn't bother. He was not in a hurry at this time, and when it came to the resort, it must have something to do with his father's murder. A wisp of white smoke came from between Xing Jinfeng's fingers, he took a puff of cigarette, his eyes were almost completely silent in the past emotion, his muscles trembled, forming a look that he didn't know whether he was frightened or angry.

"You know how much a project would cost, and I almost broke my leg for it. It didn't work, it didn't work at all, even though the project hadn't been approved so far. I didn't know at the time that this was just a prelude, and everything was starting to go in a completely different direction. ”

"I can't complain that the young genius who suddenly came out a few years ago has almost no news in recent years, I thought you were in Taoguang." Chu Ci suddenly remembered the deeds that were widely reported by the media a few years ago, and indeed it was almost hard to believe that those achievements were made by a teenager.

"Taoguang Yanghui?" Xing Jinfeng repeated it loudly, and then laughed: "You can also say the same, after all, the matter of the resort project is too conspiratorial." Anyone thinks in the direction of conspiracy theories, and so do I. Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, maybe he is too ostentatious so he has aroused jealousy? That's what I thought at the time, but what happened later showed that it wasn't possible. He took a big puff on his cigarette, and in a few moments a cigarette was about to be smoked clean. But Xing Jinfeng, who was addicted to some kind of truth, didn't find out, and the firelight soon burned his fingers.

The pain in his hand aroused his spirit, and Xing Jinfeng shook out the cigarette in his hand and stepped on it.

"Can you imagine? From then on, whatever I did about money would be a loss. It's like when a musician who could have played in the Golden Hall suddenly discovers that he can't even draw eggs one day, and the top painter suddenly discovers that he can't even draw eggs. His voice trembled, and he wiped his face with both hands. Chu Ci noticed that he was caressing something on his neck uneasily, as if this was the only way to give him the strength to keep talking.

"Once, twice, three times...... Soon all the money I had accumulated was almost gone. Until I almost doubted life...... You can think about everything you do, and you know how it feels like to fail...... It was a terrible feeling to be targeted by God. There is also the disappointment of the people around him, the ridicule, the withdrawal of partners, and the sharp fall of stocks...... Everything made me feel apocalyptic helpless. ”

Chu Ci can imagine Xing Jinfeng's encounter, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as falling from the altar to hell, after all, what human beings love to see the most is the fall of genius. But he expressed doubts about Xing Jinfeng's words, it is normal for life to have ups and downs, can it only be said that it is correct if it is smooth sailing, and God is completely blamed for a little accident?

"Look." Xing Jinfeng took out the thing in his neck, and Chu Ci could see that it was a small cross. "I panicked and caught almost everything I could. I was religious, I prayed, I went vegetarian, I went to do good. I believed, went to do things, went to buy talisman paper. I believe in Buddhism, I go to worship, I go to give light to jade, I go to invite a master...... But it didn't work at all. ”

"With all due respect, are you sure it's not just a coincidence?" Chu Ci couldn't help but interject, although the probability of a coincidence is very small, it does not mean that it is impossible.

"Coincidence...... I thought so when I couldn't help it. Sometimes I even get a little stunned, wondering if there is an enemy that I don't know is lurking in the shadows against me. But this is even more unlikely and terrifying than the cow ghost snake god. If there was such a person, his power would have to spread all over the world, from medical to electronics, from defense to finance...... That's not something that can be described by hands and eyes......" Xing Jinfeng was helpless, he shook his head: "Besides, I saw that monster with my own eyes this time......"

"You saved me that day, don't those invisible waves of bugs show that there is indeed a mysterious power in the world?" Xing Jinfeng's eyes were very conflicted: "The resort's project was suddenly approved on the day I came back, and I thought I was finally ready to go." But soon, everything went in a bad direction again. A strange incident occurred during the trial operation of the opening, resulting in the death of two people......" Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Chu Ci's reaction.

"You mean my father ......" Chu Ci was taken aback and blurted out.

Xing Jinfeng nodded, but frowned: "I know that there is a secret in this matter, because...... What I still can't believe is that I saw the monster that day! ”

"Monsters?"

"Covered in skin, with a head covering half of a skull and long shackles......"

It's the one I saw!

"I know your father has been put in a detention center, but the day before yesterday there was another incident like that pregnant woman. I knew I was right that day. Just the day before yesterday, there was another incident similar to that of the pregnant woman. ”

He then looked back at the courtyard: "To tell you the truth, when I looked at this dilapidated house, I didn't even think about it anymore. If Director Lin hadn't introduced me...... This dirty exterior wall is full of creeper outer courtyards. Speaking of this, a centipede stumbled out of the crack in the stone and quickly crawled past Xing Jinfeng's feet, he frowned and raised his right foot with some disgust: "And these little animals." Then he turned his head and looked at Chu Ci's eyes seriously, and his expression even carried a hint of request: "But when I saw you, I knew that there might be salvation." ”

"Wait...... Director Lin? "Chu Ci's iconic Donald Duck-like voice appeared in his mind, what's the matter with the little old man?" Are you talking about Director Lin Shiguolin? Head of the Department of Clinical Medicine, Tianjing Medical University? Xing Jinfeng nodded: "Tianjing Medical College is my alma mater, and Director Lin was my department head when I was in college. ”

Chu Ci became more and more confused, Director Lin lost his wife five years ago, and his two sons were also studying abroad, how could an old man who lived alone get in touch with these things?

"After all, you once saved me. Maybe something burning in your hand can hurt that monster, and I have to promise that nothing like this will happen in my resort in the future, it's my last stand. This time, if I can't catch it, I won't have a day to turn over in my life! ”

When Chu Ci heard this, he clenched his fists, because the same incident happened?
